Definitely worth doing mate even just for piece of mind at least I now know that's all fresh before the power quest begins lol.
What did you and your MK2 do today?

I already have the new pick up pipe and oil, just need the oil filter and some sealant.

Make sure you get the proper sealant mate as I dont think it's a standard sealant it's not cheap.
Finished replacing my water methanol check valve with a solenoid as I've moved the injection after the throttle body. Running good and with the nice weather you can definitely tell the difference when the meth system is switched off and switched on.
As mine has just turned 130k I thought I would take the EGR valve off and see how badly coked up it was. I was pleasantly surprised to see it wasn't bad at all, hardly any build up to speak of which was good, quick clean and threw it back together. Next job is to figure out what the intermittent sound coming from the rear offside that sounds like metal being dragged...
Slowly working my way round the car removing scratches etc, not 100% but a noticeable improvement.
I am going to get the vw sealant that you can get, it's the same as Whats used from the factory

Ace! Put some thread lock on the bolt that holds it to the engine. I bought a pack of 20 I've lost that many over the years. LOL.
Progressive parts they have adverts on here. Right now is 10% off in their Revo sale so £284.93 delivered
Thanks I do have some in the cupboard so will get that on. I'm not sure if I need the APR stage 1 map again put in once fitted or will it be ok just to fit ?
It's got the APR stage 1 98ron map on it right now. Just got to call insurance once as soon as it's on to declare it.
Hi.
If you do have any issues with insurance then please feel free to drop me a line.

Got the Revo induction fitted and what a pain in the 
to get the original downpipe clamp off and back on the new downpipe. That aside 
what a difference in sound .Not been for a drive yet to get food.
Doesn't get mentioned but I had to Dremel a bit of the grill or the heatshield bracket wouldn't fit.
